    Whenever I log into my laptop, past the login screen, the screen immediately darkens and becomes way too unsaturated and dark to view.

    This doesn't occur doing the login screen and fixes itself when I run a Display test on Windows 7, but it reoccurs when I open a new program.

    Ideas anyone?

    If you have an Nvidia GPU, right click on the desktop and select 'Nvidia Control Panel'.

    From there you can adjust various settings.

    It's all at the normal settings. Adjusting it gives a preview with no changes. Applying it does the same.
